pro tip: if your game requires grinding in any way, its not a good game. grinding is a lazy-developers best friend for stretching a relatively small amount of REAL content into a full game and I am tired of it. its disrespectful of my time as a player and as a consumer. i wish it was as easy as just not buying the…

Very good point. Games released early on in a console’s life are never indicative of how far the graphics of that system can go. For example, remember that Watch_Dogs trailer from 2012 which blew everyone’s mind, then led to the ultimate disappointment when its graphics were completely kneecapped? Go back and re-watch…

You know what I like about AllRecipe - it gives you the recipe. I don’t have to scroll for 3 days past a novella about how the recipe changed your families life, made you the hero of every social function ever, and retroactively won World War I.

Who knows, they might go the Ubisoft route and realize that making all of your games super similar isn’t a good thing.

The only time we will see news about Elder Scrolls 6, I would expect, is when ESO stops making Bethesda money. Same deal with GTA.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, bud. 

So, corporate welfare is fine, but welfare for people is wasteful government in action, amirite?

“Or are we going to ignore the people he needs in order to win and then get mad at them when they don’t propel him to victory?”

even worse, a “centrist.

Now, that’s way more interesting than yet another stupid baking soda volcano.

Everything about this screams “The Cornballer”

Superhot rules.

Much more satisfying for me was an interview Michael Shur did today on KCRW’s Press Play with Madeline Brand... (for some reason the headline calls him the show’s director, rather than creator/showrunner.)

(Upside down black pyramid appears in the distance, garbled speaking noises emerge)

Counterpoint...

The Expanse just dropped its latest season. Two popular characters, Bobbie and Avasarala, aren’t even in the book they’re adapting this season but guess what? They managed to write storylines for them so they’re still in the show.
